SORGHUM SUGAR.
Special to the Gazette.

Special to the Gazette.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 1.-THE news of
the success attending the recent expert
ments of manufacturing sugar from
sorghum at Fort Scott, Kan, is received
with more than ordinary interest. The
results obtained have been most crafty
ing. It has been demonstrated that sugar
from sorghum can be produced st cost
OF 50 cents per 100 pounds. This should
encourage the building of extensive
plants over the country. In Kansas
alone loo, 900 acres of sorghum is grown,
and nearly 100000 worth Of ms-
chinery has been built for expert
ments in testing the best manner
of extracting the juices and yet the in
dustry is only in ils infancy. The south
is especially favorable to the cultivation
of sorghum, and it mas been demonstrated
that fifty acres Of land in sorghum will
yield net income to the farmer Of $4,000,
The Commissioner of Agriculture, VINO
was formerly a skeptic regarding the
value of sorghum for making sugar, now
says there is no plant to compete with II
in making sugar. Those gentlemen who
nave contributed so much to the
suCCGSS VI ILLS ucSSENc
as highly Of their country
as did Eli Whitney when he invented the
cotton gin. Credit and honor are deserv
ed by those who were It's friends when it
needed friends. The success attending
the manufacturing of sorghum sugar has
led to the formation of a syndicate, which
it is said will establish plant in Ala
bema. The syndicate is headed by Sena-
tor Pugh, who owns land in Ala
oama, which he Will put into
the enterprise, taking stock il
exchange for his land. The details art
not fully arranged, but sufficient has been
done to Justify the prediction that Ala
bsms will soon foster another important
&nd valuable industry, which is destined
to revolutionize present prices for sugar
and bring this commodity within the
reach of the poorest citizen.

DR.. James n. Gloucester inherits q

who accumulated large amount Of
means by
KEEPING A SWELL BOARDING HOUSE
in Remsen street, Brooklyn. About 8
year before her death Edwin Booth came
to the Academy Of Music there to play q
weeks engagement. Mr.. Booths mar
ager was DESTROYS of placing all the
members of his supporting company liz
one hotel, but none of the hotels had sat
isfactory accommodations for them. Mrs.
Gloucester heard of this, and her negotl
ations with the msnager disclosed the
fact that sac owned q spacious house in
Henry street which was completely fur
nished and equipped, and which she had
kept tensntless in order to be prepared
for emergencies. Since her decease
her daughters, each of whom received
large amount of money from the estate,

which she built up. DR.. Gloucester

September until June and then he goes to
his country seat on Long Island. 81

when they are asked il the popular i'm
preston as to the amount of their re-
spective fortunes is correct, they sadly
haul out their books of account and show
an army of uncollected debts, which they
solemnly assert represents, not only the
extent of their misdirected confidence in
the debt paying intentions of persons who
not only praised their cuisine while it

the fortunes which they were supposed

Damage Done at Granbury.

Special Correspondence.
GRANBoRY, TEX, Oct. 10-A heavier
rain fell yesterday than at any period
in the last six years. A good, ground
soaking rain fell Fridsy night and most
of Saturday, filling the ground with all
the water that could be absorbed. Sun
day morning gradual rain set in and in
an hour it was falling thick and fast,
which lasted between three and four
hours. Every creek and branch was
swelled to the capacity of it's banks. and
today the BraZDs river is as high as she has
been for several years, and continues to
rise. MIR. A. P. Gordon's gin property,
situated on an isle near the branch north
of town was surround d with the food
and for several hours it
was thought the property would
be swept away. Had it not
been for the untiring efforts of some of
our business men every bale of cotton on
the yard would have been washed into the
Brazos. Men worked in water five and
SIX feet deep for hours saving bales of
cotton by tying them with heavy rope to
the gin house, trees, ETC., saving every
bale of cotton. After a slow rain all
night last night regular winter-time
are going up rapidly and wood is in active
demand.
CJu-lderable damage was done to the
Fort Worth and Rio Grande by the heavy
rains. A bridge between the depot and
he end of the track was washed out and
all the timbers went into the BRACES. The
heaviest damage done was washout
on the east side of the BrGzos, which will
take two or three days TO rep&ir. Mr..
Joe Scully, with gang Of workmen, are
repairing the damages. The excursion
ISIS who went to Fort Worth Sunday
were conveyed from the washout into
town in hacks at 9 O'Clock. No other
washes or damages are reported except
the ones near town. Our people are
gladly surprised ct so little dsmsge being
done the road after such enormous rains.
All damages will be repaired and trains
running into the depot in short time
Considering the amount of rain that fell
altogether the damages were very small
and the road will geG of with small ex-
pense. Trains will run On time to the
Brazos bridge until repairs are completed.

BRowNsvILLE, TEX, Oct. n.-Heavy
rains have fallen here since yesterday
morning. Is is reported by Mr.. Kahn
that his house, with several others in his
vicinity, are in water ten inches above
the fierce food. The streets OF
the city look more like
csnals thGH tara firms, and
the Rio Grande is one inch higher
than ever before. The rain between the
hours of 4 and O'Clock this morning fell
in torrents, and. since it has begun, it has
fallen to depth of seven inches, with
signs OF more sooa.
The weather prophets at Washington
predict terrific cyclone in the Gulf,
moving westward, and this has been the
cause OF the signal station being be-
seiged by inquiring persons seek
ing information that they may
prepare for their own protection
on it's approach. Even on the streets the
weather observer here is stopped and
questioned about the expected storm. 1t
is hoped no storm will visit US so early
after the 21st.
The residence OF Mr.. J. Smith on the
Fort Brown reservation is surrounded

THE STATE OF TRADE.
Special kilograms TO Bradstreet's,
while reporting fair degree, OF activity
in the distribution of general merchan-
disc, ,articulsrly of groceries and hard
ware, record noticeable decline, taking
the country as whole, when compared
with the weekly average during Septem-
Der. At Boston, New York, Philadelphia,
Detroit, Chicago, st. Joseph and Calves
ton, while no special declines are noted
Except at Philadelphia and St. Joseph +,
general trade has been more active within
recent weeks than it is now. There is q
moderate check to the movement of dry
goods at some western centers, and the
demand for pig iron is also less pro-
nounced, although prices continue firm
q" St. Louis, Pittsburg and New York.
The market, as whole, is more quiet.
Mercantile collections are fair only north
west and throughout the central Mis- si5s-
ippi and Missouri valleys and southwest,
with soae delsy in particular localities.
Leading domestic money markets are
about az last reported, with rather more
freedom in masking mercantile discounts,
At New York the market is noIeasier; at
Boston there is more stringency, and at
PhilSdelphia much more ease in effecting
discounts. There is no improvements this
direction over last week in Kansas City,
St Joseph, Davenport and Omshs, but at
Chicago, Burlins ton, Iowa, and Louisville
the loan markets are easier. At Chicago
private lenders are doing an increased bus
mess and the banks have ample reserves.
Lower tendencies we're shown in the NV
York stock market due to bear activity,
sad based on the northwestern railway
situation, and the announcement OF the
sale of the Baltimore and OHIO wires to
the Western Union produced but tenn
porsry rally.
Anthracite coal is very active and tend
ing higher. Wool is steady and cotton
heavy. Wheat and corn are both statisti-
cally strou ger, but hog products are very
dull. At the west cattle are lower on the
week. Raw snears are higher on foreign
advices.- Bradstrees 3.
